Why the hell are you doing anything at ALL? You're not the maintainer, your preinst/postinst is screwed, you trash a working configuration with unwarranted assumptions on your own part and don't even save a backup of the original configuration. I had SIX working kernel images defined in my configuration, all in /boot. Now I have NONE, because you removed their configurations, and replaced them with configurations pointing to the root of the filesystem where, needless to say, there are no kernel images.
You removed my PASSWORD definitions. So much for security, eh? You removed my 'lba32' setting. And you didn't even mention that you were going to do it before it happened. You, sir, are a menace. Your comments in postinst are insulting and intentionally inflammatory. I'd hope that you can at least make the claim that English isn't your first language, because if it is, you've really got problems. Whyinhell are you making NMU's on critical system files when you don't know what you're doing? ----- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.moonkingdom.net/mwilson -----Original Message----- From: Russell Coker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 05, 2001 6:52 PM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: lilo.conf I am working on the Debian package of lilo and am writing code for auto-generating lilo.conf files. Below is an example of the type of lilo.conf that can be generated. The debconf asks whether you want boot or boot-menu as the boot loader, it asks what VGA mode you want, what parameters to append, and what DOS partitions to setup with the "other=" settings. The rest is inferred from the running system. If your lilo.conf has things that aren't in this which you think should be in debconf then please do an anonymous ftp to ivanova.coker.com.au and upload it to the incoming directory. I'll try and make the next version do what you require. boot=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc root=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 compact install=/boot/boot-menu.b delay=20 map=/boot/map append="video=vesa:ywrap,pmipal,mtrr" vga=791 read-only image=/vmlinuz label=Linux image=/vmlinuz.old label=old other=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 label=part1 table=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
